Not enough tension from the bail springs.  You can increase the
tension with a  couple of rubber bands wrapped around the bail and
secured to the read printer  cover by paper clips.  This is known as
the "Mickey Mouse" solution.

Looks like my monitor is about to go.  Suggestions on who/where to
get a mono and possibly a color monitor?

I went to Midwest Systems (sorry, don't have the number handy) & got a VR241
(the color model) about a year ago for $150.00, which was a pretty
good deal, since DEC wanted $90 to fix my VR201 (mono)!

Midwest Systems.  Are they local to Colorado Springs, or. . .?

tx for the info.  Not exactly keen on paying Dec prices for an
obselete machine, though I do use it to communicate and type one. . .

tx for the info, david
